About NWB Woodworks

Nick Barboza - Designer & Craftsman

I focus my work around original design coupled with time-honored techniques resulting in unique, one of a kind furniture built to last generations. Each piece built in my shop marries visually pleasing lines with superior function. I firmly believe that neither of these two items can exist alone, but must harmonize in order to successfully create a piece of fine furniture.

Inspiration for my work stems from all parts of everyday life, including many natural and manmade forms. Many of my designs begin with an inspiration for a single detail on a piece. This detail then evolves through numerous hand sketches and is combined with other design elements into a full-scale drawing and finally into a completed piece.
